Villains

Villains.

Cheering for the goodies
Is really rather sad.
I do just the opposite.
I cheer on the bad.

Sherlock Holmes and Watson
Are too hale and arty.
They are not the men I'm for.
I'm for Moriarty.

Flash Gordon in the movies
Goes and does his thing.
You will hear me cheering,
Yes, for Emperor Ming.

People's thoughts on Disney
Can be quite obscene.
Most blokes fancy Snow White.
I like the Wicked Queen.

One-oh-one dalmantions
Make me feel quite ill.
One redeeming character:
Cruella de Ville.

There is an exception
To the way I feel.
I would never like them
If the swines were real.

**

Wicked Queen.

I wrote "I like the Wicked Queen",
So critics like to moan.
They say that Snow White's Wicked Queen
Changes to a crone.

This kind of transformation
Won't frighten me at all.
It happens fairly often
After alcohol.

Sometimes on a night out,
Pick up a gorgeous woman,
To find out in the morning
That she looks barely human.

It's a fifty-fifty
Which of us will flee,
Because I know the woman
Thinks the same of me.

**

Vlad.

Vlad the Impaler
Needed no jailer.
If you did him wrong,
You didn't last long.

A diplomat,
In a fancy hat,
Disliked the smell,
Got staked as well.

As a psychopath,
On a twisted path,
He went too far,
Now he's Dracula.

**

Selfishness.

Joseph Stalin
Was a sod,
But he never
Bothered God.

Jehovah's Witness,
What a bore,
Always knocking
On my door.

Joseph Stalin,
Better, see,
For he never
Bothered me.

**

Tin Man.

I'm the Tin Man,
That's my part.
Like the Tin Man,
I've no heart.

I'm still single,
Though I'm old.
Humans, animals,
Leave me cold.

Like Sinatra,
It's My Way:
Friend of Dorothy,
But not gay
